3. Dummy Your Penalties

If ever you're in a position where you're taking a penalty, this tip could come in handy. You've just been upended in the box, the referee points to the spot, and up steps the penalty taker. At this stage, you have a variety of options. Hit it hard and low, and aim for the corner, or try to thump it down the middle or into the top corner. Alternatively, you can also dummy your run, and fool the keeper into diving early before notching it into the opposite corner at the last minute. To do this, press down O (on PS3 - the corresponding 'shoot button' on other consoles) and press again during the run up.
